SQLServers Collection

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The SQLServers collection contains SQLServer objects created by the SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) application.

SQL-DMO object model that shows the current object

Properties

Remarks

SQL-DMO maintains the SQLServers collection. Members are added when the application creates a new instance of a SQLServer object and are removed when the application releases all references it holds on the member. For example:

Dim     oSQLServer as SQLDMO.SQLServer
' SQLServer object not created. No member in SQLServers collection.

Set oSQLServer = New SQLDMO.SQLServer
' SQLServer object is now a member of the SQLServers collection.

Set oSQLServer = Nothing 
' SQLServer object references released and member removed
' from SQLServers collection.

When using the Item method, the SQLServers collection supports member identification using either name or ordinal reference syntax. For example:

Set oSQLServer = oApplication.SQLServers("SEATTLE1")

Or:

Set oSQLServer = oApplication.SQLServers(2)
